thekyttnI should be thinking about what the next 4 years will bring. Hopefully a positive change. It worries me a tiny bit that we've got a primarily democratic congress along with a democratic president - I've always preferred that if one is democratic, the other be republican, just to serve some checks and balances on each other. Of course, I understand so little about politics. Maybe more will get done with both being of the same party. We'll see.
Earlier I was bouncing because I no longer have to work every Saturday. Then Faeryn came home briefly to pick up something, phone to her ear as she talked to one friend, while another waited in her car, then went away again. She came back again a few minutes ago, again talking on the phone. On her earlier visit to the house, she had barely time to listen to my news about the new hire, and when she came home this time, there was enough time to show me the new coat her father bought her. Then, as usual, she went off to her room. I realized that having Saturday off is going to be more than odd. It will probably end up being yet more time that I spend alone, or I'll end up going to the store to check on things and get work done on my own time, so I can be around people. Maybe my son will have some time to hang out with me. We don't talk all that often, but at least when we do, he doesn't seem to be in a hurry to get rid of me.
I guess I'm feeling lonely and sorry for myself. Half the world is celebrating and I'm sitting here moping because my daughter doesn't have time for me. How revolting. I hope I make it to the knitting group tomorrow. This home alone stuff is getting old.
I need to sleep. Life is so much easier when I'm busy working or sleeping.
I wish I had my Wilderwood CD with me. I left it at work, along with most of my other filk CDs.
Ok, something mindless on TV in the background and sleep.
